e.g SCIENCE "Law Of Motion" Q1 Flashcards
An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion at constant velocity, unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
1st law of motion
Force equals mass times acceleration.
2nd law of motion
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
3rd law of motion
is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity
Inertia
a dimensionless quantity representing the amount of matter in a particle or object.
Mass
is the force of attraction that exists between any two object that have mass
Gravity
is a force, like you push your hand is a force, and is measured in Newtons
Weight
He developed the theories of gravitation in 1666, when he was only 23 years old.
Sir Isaac Newton
